A model independent generalization of quantum mechanics, including the usual as well as the dissipative quantum systems, is proposed. The theory is developed deductively from the basic principles of the standard quantum theory, the only new qualitative assumption being that we allow the wave operator at time t of a quantum system to be non-differentiable (in t) in the usual sense, but only in an appropriately defined (Sec. 5) stochastic sense. The resulting theory is shown to lead to a natural generalization of the usual quantum equations of motion, both in the form of the Schrödinger equation in interaction representation (Sec. 6) and of the Heisenberg equation (Sec. 8). The former equation leads in particular to a quantum fluctuation-dissipation relation of Einstein’s type. The latter equation is a generalized Langevin equation, from which the known form of the generalized master equation can be deduced via the quantum Feynmann-Kac technique (Secs. 9 and 10). For quantum noises with increments commuting with the past the quantum Langevin equation defines a closed system of (usually nonlinear) stochastic differential equations for the observables defining the coefficients of the noises. Such systems are parametrized by certain Lie algebras of observables of the system (Sec. 10). With appropriate choices of these Lie algebras one can deduce generalizations and corrections of several phenomenological equations previously introduced at different times to explain different phenomena. Two examples are considered: the Lie algebra [q, p]=i (Sec. 12), which is shown to lead to the equations of the damped harmonic oscillator; and the Lie algebra of SO(3) (Sec. 13) which is shown to lead to the Bloch equations. In both cases the equations obtained are independent of the model of noise. Moreover, in the former case, it is proved that the only possible noises which preserve the commutation relations of p, q are the quantum Brownian motions, commonly used in laser theory and solid state physics.

Split Lie Algebra

We introduce the class of split Lie algebras of order 3 as the natural generalization of split Lie superalgebras and split Lie algebras. By means of connections of roots, we show that such a split Lie algebra of order 3 is of the form [Formula: see text] with [Formula: see text] a linear subspace of [Formula: see text] and any [Formula: see text] a well-described (split) ideal of [Formula: see text] satisfying [Formula: see text], with [Formula: see text], if [Formula: see text]. Additionally, under certain conditions, the (split) simplicity of the algebra is characterized in terms of the connections of nonzero roots, and a second Wedderburn type theorem for the class of split Lie algebras of order 3 (asserting that [Formula: see text] is the direct sum of the family of its (split) simple ideals) is stated.

We prove that one of the conditions in Zaicev's formula for the PI-exponent and in its natural generalization for the Hopf PI-exponent, can be weakened. Using the modification of the formula, we prove that if a finite-dimensional semisimple Lie algebra acts by derivations on a finite-dimensional Lie algebra over a field of characteristic 0, then the differential PI-exponent coincides with the ordinary one. Analogously, the exponent of polynomial G-identities of a finite-dimensional Lie algebra with a rational action of a connected reductive affine algebraic group G by automorphisms, coincides with the ordinary PI-exponent. In addition, we provide a simple formula for the Hopf PI-exponent and prove the existence of the Hopf PI-exponent itself for H-module Lie algebras whose solvable radical is nilpotent, assuming only the H-invariance of the radical, i.e. under weaker assumptions on the H-action, than in the general case. As a consequence, we show that the analog of Amitsur's conjecture holds for G-codimensions of all finite-dimensional Lie G-algebras whose solvable radical is nilpotent, for an arbitrary group G.

In the paper it is shown that the two-dimensional dynamical system of equations is Darboux integrable if and only if its characteristic Lie algebra is finite-dimensional. The class of systems having a full set of fist and second order integrals is described.

Entropy Functions

Equations of hydrodynamic type with the equation of state in the form of pressure separated into a sum of density and entropy functions are considered. Such a system of equations admits a twelve-dimensional Lie algebra. In the case of the equation of state of the general form, the equations of gas dynamics admit an eleven-dimensional Lie algebra. For both Lie algebras the optimal systems of non-similar subalgebras are constructed. In this paper two partially invariant submodels of rank 3 defect 1 are constructed for two-dimensional subalgebras of the twelve-dimensional Lie algebra. The reduction of the constructed submodels to invariant submodels of eleven-dimensional and twelve-dimensional Lie algebras is proved.

We study the structure of n-Lie algebras with involutive derivations for n≥2. We obtain that a 3-Lie algebra A is a two-dimensional extension of Lie algebras if and only if there is an involutive derivation D on A=A1  ∔  A-1 such that dim A1=2 or dim A-1=2, where A1 and A-1 are subspaces of A with eigenvalues 1 and -1, respectively. We show that there does not exist involutive derivations on nonabelian n-Lie algebras with n=2s for s≥1. We also prove that if A is a (2s+2)-dimensional (2s+1)-Lie algebra with dim A1=r, then there are involutive derivations on A if and only if r is even, or r satisfies 1≤r≤s+2. We discuss also the existence of involutive derivations on (2s+3)-dimensional (2s+1)-Lie algebras.

Local Properties

We study the local properties of a class of codimension-2 defects of the 6d [Formula: see text] theories of type J = A, D, E labeled by nilpotent orbits of a Lie algebra [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] is determined by J and the outer-automorphism twist around the defect. This class is a natural generalization of the defects of the six-dimensional (6d) theory of type SU (N) labeled by a Young diagram with N boxes. For any of these defects, we determine its contribution to the dimension of the Higgs branch, to the Coulomb branch operators and their scaling dimensions, to the four-dimensional (4d) central charges a and c and to the flavor central charge k.
